Seeing as you've got the CPU already, its best to just use the lastest version (if you dont have that installed already ofcourse)

Or stick to what they already got until they run into hard issues. But to answer OP yeah, latest will be the best way to go most of the time, and according to acer thatll be version P21.B4

Wait so right now I'm using an i5 4440 and I bought that i7 4770 for an upgrade but when I changed them it won't show me anything on the screen with the PC starting and a friend told me it's probably just a BIOS version problem

Yeah then update it to the latest version and see if that works.

Oh bummer. I did check later on if they're the same socket and they are but.. oh well hope you can return it.
